Replying to Avatar Nice and Kind Vic

Periodic reminder that if you are using Umbrel, you should consider changing to a more sovereign node that is open source such as Raspiblitz or Raspibolt.

At the very least, if you don't know what your doing at the command line, find someone who can provide you support when stuff goes awry.

Lightning nodes are not for the untechnical

Couldn't agree more.

If you want to run it local, then need to understand how it works and is configured.

Otherwise should probably run Lightning with a service provider like Voltage.

Agreed. Pretty sure I've lost all the sats I put on my umbrel node. Had a bad shutdown and now I can't get back into umbrel at all

Do you have a channel backup file saved somewhere? I would try setting up another new (separarate) umbrel node and loading that channel backup file and see what happens.
